We will be discussing his candidacy and the relationship between the SF Green Party and the West campaign at our members meeting next week - anybody interested is welcome to attend, and the agenda is below. The Green Party of California also issued a statement welcoming Dr. West into the race: https://www.cagreens.org/gpca-statement-dr-cornel-west-seeking-green-party-… * Several former leaders of the SF Green Party, Barbary Blong and Betty Traynor, have organized a Zoom talk on 'PFAS: What you need to know about "forever chemicals" to protect your family' for this Tuesday. If you want to attend, you must email for registration; see more details in the announcement below. * Greens who are involved with KPFA are asking us for help in allowing them to continue to report on the Green Party, so the station does not turn even further into an arm of the Biden re-election campaign. If you want to vote in KPFA elections (where we often endorse candidates), you must have donated at least $25 since July 1 of last year. You can still donate before June 30 of this year at kpfa.org. *===========================* What: Green Party monthly members' meeting Where: Redstone Bldg (2940 16th Street, near South Van Ness) #301, SF When: Wed, June 25, 7-9 pm Agenda: Introductions - 5 min Upcoming tabling - July 4 and other - 20 min Engardio-Breed legislation attacking environmental review - 15 min Discussion of Cornel West campaign - 1 hour Every 4th Wednesday the SF Green Party meets to discuss issues of concern, listen to interesting speakers, endorse events, plan outreach and more!

Please include your name. Per and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, have been in the news this last year and with good reason. These toxic chemicals in the most minute amounts, are bioaccumulative, persistent, and nondegradable, traveling easily through air, water, and soil. They are everywhere on the planet and in almost everything, including us. This zoom presentation will provide you with the research tools to find out about PFAS in California and the San Francisco Bay area; the laws that can protect you (or lack thereof); and ways to protect yourself, your family, and future generations from these toxins. *===========================* What: Voter outreach at the SF Mime Troupe's "home opening" show Where: Dolores Park, meet by entrance at Church and 18th St When: Tues, July 4, 1 pm - 4 pm We'll be doing voter outreach at the Mime Troupe's opening show in Dolores Park on Tues, July 4. Their play this year is called "Breakdown." https://www.sfmt.org/ The play will start at 2 pm, with music at 1:30. Volunteers are needed to help us set up our table and do voter outreach starting at 1 pm. Help us register new Greens and find people willing to help win Medicare for All; email if you can help out: cc(a)sfgreens.org. *===========================* To submit events for our newsletter, please email a short blurb to news(a)sfgreens.org. Messages to a mailing list will be rejected.
